Department of State: Washington will continue to work with Moscow on the INF Treaty

Washington believes that the Treaty on the Elimination of Intermediate-Range and Shorter-Range Missiles is in the sphere of interests of both the United States and the Russian Federation, therefore it remains open for further negotiations, which could alleviate mutual concerns about the implementation of the agreements, reports RIA News statement by Assistant Secretary of State Frank Rose.

“We believe that this agreement is in the interests of both countries, and we will work with Russia to resolve this issue diplomatically ... We continue to discuss this issue with our Russian colleagues on a regular basis,” said Rose at a briefing in Vienna.

According to him, the United States is still "concerned that Russia does not comply with its obligations under the INF Treaty."

At the request of journalists to provide concrete evidence, Rose said: "We have provided our Russian colleagues with a wealth of information on this subject."

“We remain open to the resolution of this (issue) with Russia through diplomatic channels. This agreement is in the interests of the United States, Russia and the Euro-Atlantic space, ”he concluded.

The agency recalls that in early November, Rose announced that Washington was considering “economic and military measures” in connection with Russia's failure to comply with the INF Treaty.

Washington believes that the Treaty on the Elimination of Intermediate and Shorter-Range Missiles is in the sphere of interests of both the United States and the Russian Federation,

Oops ... mistake. We are poh. But if you need, offer.

[79807420129]

The Americans are again preoccupied .... Do they themselves abide by the agreements? But then they have no equal in their fingers to bend like a fan, go in the ass striped-eared.

[oleg-gr]

The Americans are doing everything to bring to the fore the tertiary issues. But really important topics - Ukraine, Syria - seem to have been resolved. All rights and obligations are specified in the contract.

No, this is not a tertiary question. This is probably the dumbest state-style cast about expanding the treaty. As far as I remember, under the treaty, land-based INFs with a range of 500 to 5000 km are prohibited. We got out of the sea in due time (an intelligent man was found, thank God) - you will receive the "Caliber" and the ground "Iskander" (up to 500 km), plus the old modernized missiles with an increased range of 5300-5500 km. There is something to attend to ghouls.

[Vladimirets]

Quote: iliitch

We ottoral in due time (an intelligent man was found, thank God) - get "Caliber"

Cool solution, especially considering that the winged axes that threaten us, and so, mostly in the US Navy. It is also gratifying that we have destroyed twice as many RKs than the "friends".

[iliitchitch]

Yes, great solution. Firstly, winged axes for 2500 do not fly (and they have new ones only in the project, they will still make 7-10 years), and we simply will not allow them to reach the border for 1000 km if desired. Secondly, one boat less than 1000 tons with a displacement of eight "calibers" will drown the fuck any AUG, and they will not be able to get it. We won "in arm's length". The sarcasm is not entirely clear, Vladimir.

Some modifications fly.

Do you know the Caliber range for surface targets?

Quote: iliitch

and they won’t be able to get it.

AUG will be able to.

Quote: iliitch

Sarcasm is not entirely clear, SW.Vladimirets.

A very simple explanation. Under this agreement, we sawed 1800 RK, Americans 800. Calibers have just entered service, axes have been flying for a very long time, and the number of their carriers is an order of magnitude higher than ours. Therefore, the joy that we "knocked out" concessions on sea basing, it seems to me, is groundless. The most important thing that we are losing on the RMSD is the impossibility of placing and producing such complexes on OUR territory. And our partners happily deliver the same missiles to our shores (they don't care to sail either way) and our sea carriers do not pose a direct threat to US territory, alas.

[iliitchitch]

It would be much worse if the Persings stumbled along our borders. Well, they would rivet their own, so what? That wretched Europe can be smashed by other means. The states of "BUYANAMi-M" are not threatened by anyone, for this there are other carriers, submarines, for example.

[Army soldier2]

Dear iliitchitch, the marine component has not been included in the agreement on the INF Treaty with the submission of the United States. For the simple reason that the basis of the US INF was sea-based, and we have ground-based.

[Vladimirets]

Quote: iliitch

there are other carriers for this, submarines, for example.

Do you know how many submarines we have with cruise missiles? Project 885 - 1 pc, project 636 as many as 4 pieces. Against the United States, this, of course, is power.

[iliitchitch]

And here the cruise missiles submarines? Of course, it’s stupid to drag RSD to the states if strategic missile carriers are available. That is what I had in mind.
By the way, I read about the treaty - we sawed it in 1846, redeployed another part beyond the Urals, the states - 846. And we won anyway, because we had nothing to oppose to the Pershing, and the arrival time was less than 10 minutes. Another thing is that it was possible to bargain harder, but only from the humpbacked with the Georgian something good was not to be expected.

[Vladimirets]

Quote: iliitch

And here the cruise missiles submarines

Well, the conversation was just about the RMDS.

Quote: iliitch

if strategic missile carriers are available. That is what I had in mind.

These are already strategists.

Quote: iliitch

It’s another matter that it was possible to bargain harder, but there was no reason to expect anything good from a hunchbacked Georgian.

About that and speech.

[Kunar]

Previously, there was a reservation "... in Europe." And when they were reminded of the presence of such missiles in France, Germany, England, China, India, Turkey,
Saudis, Pakistanis - he stuck up .... And right now, did you comb it again? Didn't you like our "calibers"? So it's not the 90s))))) Nobody will cut anything

[smel]

I agree that FSU. But to admit, all the same, it would not hurt that upon the adoption of this treaty there was not a mistake, but a crime on the part of those in power. Some for this would not hurt to pull up for this same FSU. And until the Americans fidget at our borders and in Europe - there will be no discussion on this topic. Here's a thought

[remy]

pind_os have already passed ...
RS-26 flies both 2000 km and 8000 km ...

[Tor5]

What only they are not concerned about. But they don’t see a log in their own eyes!

[Same lech]

Maybe WASHINGTON is better off returning to a missile defense treaty from which the United States did not come out with special ceremony with RUSSIA.
Then it will not make sense to stir up the agreement on the INF Treaty.

[sannych]

At the request of journalists to provide concrete evidence, Rose said: "We have provided our Russian colleagues with a wealth of information on this subject."
What's going on with the evidence? In addition to the "large volume" from social networks and unfounded accusations, can they present at least something? A general epidemic of psakism.

[venaya]

We believe that this agreement is in the interests of both countries, and we will work with Russia to resolve this issue diplomatically ...

Again, some muck conceived. With these gentlemen you need an eye and an eye, but still they are throwing masters, this is their true calling.

[Wedmak]

Concern without facts is a sign of brain disease. I’m already scared when they say "we are concerned." God knows what comes to their minds and so the State Department is already saying one thing, the Pentagon is another, Obama is the third. And their hawks are generally shibanut on the whole head.

[ImPerts]

It is not profitable for our country to withdraw from the INF Treaty. And it is necessary to negotiate, but link them with the new ABM treaty, with the treaty on the non-proliferation of weapons in space.
Of course, it must be borne in mind that the United States does only what it considers profitable, and does the same with contracts. But taking into account the new opportunities demonstrated by our armed forces, the hope for conventional weapons, technological advantage, and so on, the Americans no longer have that odds. They will have to be more accommodating.

---------------------
They didn’t have it before, they just used their weapons to wage war, but we don’t ... And as for our weapons, they simply transfer them to a new element base, improving their characteristics along the way, that's all ... And so, it has always been a little better, a little worse ...

[Appraiser]

At this stage, while the zone of US interests is Ukraine and the Baltic States, the negotiations on the INF Treaty should not be discussed at all. Let them first stop unilaterally supporting the "junta in Kiev" and "moderate opposition in Syria" and then we'll see ...

[olimpiada15]

And Russia is concerned about the American missile defense system in Europe.
Maybe we’ll start the discussion with their missile defense and the deployment of armed forces on the border with Russia?
They escalate the situation, and still dare to declare the INF Treaty? Who signed the contract? If EBN, let him talk to him. Insolence is unheard of.

[fif21]

Quote: olimpiada15

Really? Russia doesn’t even care if there are enough cemeteries in Europe to bury the bodies of those who believed that their missile defense systems could save them from the Russian bear.

[Dezinto]

Well, of course, of course ..... and airplanes with submarines we urgently need to cut, we went through this already:

- "We believe that this treaty is in the interests of both countries."

[Victor-M]

This agreement is in the interests of the United States

Keywords.

[Altona]

Well, straight, the United States itself unilaterally withdrew from a number of treaties ... And why should we stick to the agreements with the United States, when a number of states are armed with the latest modern missiles of various ranges, India and China, under our borders, for example ... Let everyone gather and they will prepare a comprehensive package on the INF Treaty, and then Turkey, Pakistan, China, India, Vietnam, Korea both, Kuwait, the Saudis with the emirates ... Let them gather with such a machine, plus France, Britain, Germany ...

[samara-58]

Nuuuuuuuuuuuu arrogant !!!

[rotmistr60]

on Washington’s elaboration of “economic and military measures”

With regard to economic measures, it is clear. And what will the military measures towards Russia be like? Additional deployment of medium and short-range missiles in Europe? Or maybe they will frankly say that missile defense in Europe is not directed against Iran, which was initially ridiculous, but against us. The United States still believes that what is allowed to them cannot be allowed by others. "Hegemon" is a louse.

[33 Watcher]

Well, here the position should be unambiguous. You cut, disarm, as an example and a gesture of goodwill, and we will look, and we will think so good and long. And rockets, and what rockets? We will produce, especially since they are not badly sold.
With the Anglo-Saxons in general, you can speculate about anything, just do nothing, you do not need to, if you do something after them, or better never.

[fif21]

In response to the imposition of sanctions, it is necessary to withdraw from all agreements with mattresses restraining the development of our weapons, and lift the moratorium on the death penalty. Meatballs with the entire embassy should be sent 101 km from Moscow and accommodated in tents by a cattle cemetery.

[corn]

Medium-range missile - 1000-5500km (under the INF Treaty). For example, Caliber (according to unverified data 2000-2500km). In light of recent ISIS launches, the United States will certainly cause concern. Vigilantly.

[provincial]

old giving, but hard to believe.

[BOB044]

How from the Caspian rockets hit IG. So right away, let's talk about the RSDM Treaty. Here are cleverly made, they are looking for all the fools.

[Hiw]

they kicked in, just "unexpectedly" kicked in to negotiate further, just like the hummingbirds flew, they kicked in and there was a "coming" from the smoke of explosions. Perhaps we need to add more smoke, maybe they will even start the first to reduce their missiles? .....

[Sanicha]

Come on, if they fuss, then we are on the right track.

[roskot]

They do not care about Europe. They worry about their bases. And they are stuck in Europe ...

[Gormenghast]

Together with the ABM Treaty can be discussed. Whatever it is, here we go out, here we go in.

[s.melioxin]

The US remains “concerned that Russia is not complying with its obligations under the INF Treaty.”

There were times when they believed and opened the door. Rake a lot, but do not step on them again. And something tells me not to step.

[dchegrinec]

Do not stop the dialogue is of course important! Only in the case of the United States, the dialogue is symbolic. All the same, these comrades do the opposite. Endless mouse fuss resulting in the endless strengthening of armies. Because America does not need peace, it needs leadership.

[exalex2]

Worried .. So we are doing everything right. And then I want to, I don’t want, I won’t. I’ll.

[beer-youk]

It is their corporate identity to recall contracts in cases where there is no overwhelming advantage, not to mention the backlog!
Something tells me that in the foreseeable future they will offer a new missile defense and something related to electronic warfare.

[roskot]

And he still smokes the sky. How many people thanks to him left the earth

[Koshak]

"How many people through they left the earth for him "
Not "thanks", but because of him

[NordUral]

It seems to me that no negotiations are necessary.

[propolsky]

What arrangements ?! The USA has not fulfilled more than half of its obligations. And the treacherous agreement, signed by a very valuable CIA agent Gorbachev, should have been studied by the Russian prosecutor’s office for a long time. He should have already come out, but had not sat down yet!

[Mountain spacecraft]

Yes, they are preoccupied in life. All the time, they are preoccupied with someone and something.

[1536]

It's time to get rid of the "card (negotiation) addiction". Negotiating (playing) with gamblers is more expensive. "Gorbachev 2.0" is not allowed!

[perm23]

Again they want us to bend under them. They show the world that they are good again and we are so bad. Send them on a long trip in three letters. May we be better off bad for them than dead and broken.

[tank64rus]

Aw, American. You live in 2015, and not in 1995. And the Kremlin is not a drunk EBN, a tough and pragmatic GDP. We already have this and the children understood, but you are still there.

[dckx]

Taking into account the current tension between our countries, I am more than sure that "Danila the Master of the Stone Flower" will not work.

[ArcanAG]

In fact, the American SM-3 anti-satellite missiles are just those.
With a damage height of over 200km, talking about the declared maximum range of 500km is not serious.

[AlexTires]

The INF Treaty is like a bone in the throat of Russia. When this treaty was concluded, the Americans were not so close to our borders. Now everything is different - a picket of American missiles lined up around the perimeter of the Russian border.

[GRAY]

Quote: AlexTires

The INF Treaty is like a bone in the throat of Russia.

Rather, a bone in the throat of the United States, Russia is not going to build picket fences.

[andr327]

What the hell is the INF Treaty with the United States. We place what we want on our territory and do not touch US territory with medium-range land-based missiles. Therefore, keep silence in a rag.
Well, the gay people. if you are worried, then let's negotiate with you, but we will recall both missile defense and missile bases in your territories.

[chunga-changa]

In general, the INF Treaty is very much concerned about Western Europe-Israel. This is the only real opportunity to turn them into dust, they are normally protected from "Calibers", and strategists will not spend a lot on them. The Americans are not cold-not hot from these missiles, rather it would even be useful. There was a danger when the USSR could deploy missiles in Cuba, but now, purely allies are covered.

[dezmon]

they just fulfill the annual plan for "concern"

[bt-50]

Dear Janko partners, be so perpendicular, 1st destroy the missile defense system in Europe and 2nd roll back your NATO blocs from our borders, and then we will see how we deal with short- and medium-range missiles !!!

[Neophyte]

For the Yankees, the danger of our RMBNs is expressed in the senselessness of missile defense at our borders! Their doctrine is that the more missile defense there is, the greater the chance to break through our defense. Therefore, the Yankees are furious, offering protracted negotiations on reduction! No luck to them, Gorbachev is gone!

Not quite right. 500 to 5500 km

Quote: iliitch

Firstly, 2500 winged axes do not fly

So our "Calibers" do not fly with a conventional warhead.
Tactical "tomahawk" Block III flies at 1600-1850, Block IV - at 1850 km (according to some sources at 2400)

Quote: iliitch

and 1000 km to the border, if desired, we simply will not allow them.

Why not let it go?

Secondly, one boat less than 1000 tons with a displacement of eight "calibers" will drown the fuck any AUG, and they will not be able to get it.

Quote: The same LYOKHA

Quote: ImPerts

Of course, it must be borne in mind that the United States does only what it considers profitable, and does the same with contracts.

As for the fact that they are doing what is beneficial - I agree. As for the fact that they do this with contracts - no. The only Treaty from which they emerged is the ABM Treaty. Came out on completely legal grounds and in accordance with the provisions of the contract

What about the Americans? We must take care of this and bring it not only to the Americans, but also to these countries. And we have enough of them at the borders.

And they will also place where they want. Under "a treaty with their NATO allies." For example in the eastern part of Estonia? And who after that will be silent in a rag? Are we or are they? They will then increase the release of RSD within just a few months. And we are with one plant, which makes both Bulava and Yars, and now also Rubezh and Barguzin - in how many decades will we deploy the required number of MRBMs ??? Maybe you should think first? And then for the sake of the plus signs you are carrying nonsense ...

In case of preservation of the contract, its full processing is necessary, as in its present form, it does not correspond to the balance of power in the world.
